The Donnybrooks


The Donnybrooks won a talent contest with KDKA Radio in 1958 and eventually received a recording contract with Calico Records. Their first record, "Everytime We Kiss" was a good seller and the group traveled the East Coast and performed in many night spots in the Western Pennsylvania area. The group was (left to right) John Alterio, Ken Paige, Frank Trebel, and Bob Kobert. They are shown here with Art Pallen, KDKA DJ. The south side natives were organized first by Lou Popiolkowski at the Third Ward School for an eighth grade graduation ceremony.Subject: Canonsburg Friends
